Daisy is looking for a home – would you like to meet this sweetie? She is a mix (we think!) of Minpin, maybe Chi and also daschund.

In the prime of life – 7 years old – and 11 lbs.

She is good in all areas, described by her foster parents as playful and a little ball of joy. Daisy is housebroken, up to date on vaccines and spayed. She is good with car rides and is generally good on a leash but does sometimes pull.

Daisy is good with other dogs but it is not known how she will react around children or cats.

Daisy hasn’t had a lot of training in her life, but is beginning to learn basic commands fast, and like most of her kind, is particularly motivated by treats 🙂

If you are interested in adopting Daisy please complete an application form on our website www.minpinerie.ca.

We will try to respond to all applications received within 48 hours.

 

ADOPTIONS UPDATE – 2022 – OCTOBER NOVEMBER

Oct/Nov 2022 – Through the pandemic and before it hit, our amazing adoption coordinator Louise, founder Ruth and the rest of our team have been so efficient that we place dogs quickly and effectively. That’s because we have potential adopters like you fill out applications, and then we can quickly review them and make great matches when dogs arrive (all the time).

That means, no, we don’t post many dogs. We mostly post dogs on our Facebook page, but also some here. 

We contact all applicants personally. 

As with all rescues, dogs come in to our care all the time. That’s is why having  approved applications on file is beneficial to adopters and to the rescue to get the dogs into homes as soon as possible….

Fill out an application! Get approved! Having an approved app on file will mean the fastest match possible for your trial adoption. Hope to hear from you soon!    ~The Minpinerie team

WE ARE ALWAYS IN NEED OF FOSTER ‘PARENTS’!!!

PLEASE HELP!

“Foster love” that wonderful people like you provide is the key to being able to save dog lives.

If we do not have enough caring people to open their hearts and homes to these dogs, dogs may be turned away,  surrendered to shelters, dropped off in fiels, thoughtlessly given away to any taker (maybe a breeder/puppy mill front) or sold for profit to an uncaring buyer or incapable owner.

You can make an enormous difference in the world by fostering a homeless soul for a few weeks or a few months, while other members on the Minpinerie volunteer team work tirelessly at finding these dogs permanent homes.

As a doggie foster parent, you will feed, exercise, protect, train, love and cuddle a beautiful and vulnerable little homeless dog. Minpinerie is responsible for all the dog’s veterinary expenses. IF you have the time and patience, you are encouraged to teach the dog good behavior and commands, but most of our dogs, unless very young, already have these.

In general, Minpinerie rescues miniature pinschers and minpin/mixes, but also other small dogs in need, as a rule under twenty pounds (chis, chi mixes, poodle/mix, terriers, etc).

Be prepared to fall in love!!
All the other cats/dogs in the home must be fixed and up-to-date with shots. In the case of very small dogs, there must be no children under 10 because they can easily injure a dog by dropping or squashing him.

Expect to feel so good and accomplished as your foster leaves to join her new family. It can be hard, but the whole team along with all the other Fosters are here to support you, and consider that there will unfortunately always be another furry face waiting for your help!

BONUS: Minpinerie will give foster parents “first dibs” on adopting their foster dog!!!

Please consider becoming a valued part of our important team to help a dog in need. THANK YOU!

Fill out the application on our website at https://www.minpinerie.ca or contact Louise at 613-260-9707 or loulouonline@rogers.com.

We hear : If I could I would save them all!, Here’s your chance. By saving one, you can help save many.

Please share with friends and family.

 

FOSTER PARENTS NEEDED

rico

Hello! Would you like to foster a dog in need? Our rescue cannot save dogs that have been abandoned or rescued from a shelter or puppy mill unless we have foster homes with loving folk like you to help prepare dogs for their forever homes. Minpinerie is a non-profit Ottawa-based organization made up of dedicated dog-loving volunteers who rescue and foster miniature pinschers that have been surrendered by their owners, willingly released by puppy mills or breeders, or abandoned in shelters. If you have the room in your home and your heart, (or know of someone who might) please let us know by filling out the application online and help us out by giving one of these sweeties a loving temporary place to stay on their journey to their forever home. You can find out more about a dog that might fit your family and lifestyle by calling or writing to Louise at loulouonline@rogers.com or filling in the volunteer application.
